Sandy Cruz suddenly stood up from the stairway.
"They parted ways, at most having chatted for two minutes." Flossie Wright continued as she looked up at him.
So, Sandy Cruz looked down and gave her an indifferent look.
Quickly, he turned around, intending to go upstairs.
But, having just taken one step, he couldn’t help but stop again.
Glancing at Flossie Wright, Sandy Cruz indifferently dropped a phrase, "You only report the good news, not the bad."
After hearing this, Flossie Wright gave him a smile.
Sandy Cruz then went upstairs.
He quickly disappeared from sight.
And, just after he had left, Rowdy Brightwill leaned in, occupying the position Sandy Cruz had previously held.
Flossie Wright gave him a cursory glance.
Rowdy Brightwill wore a smile, lively and vivid, deliberately covering up the awkwardness from the approach.
Flossie Wright chose not to expose him.
"Speaking of which, last time I went back..."
Narrowing his eyes, Rowdy Brightwill was about to change the subject with her when he was interrupted.
The voice was somewhat unfamiliar, but the name was not the least bit distant.
Especially when it was laced with a mix of tenderness and admiration.
Rowdy Brightwill turned his head, and a hostile look flew towards the other person.
At the same time, Flossie Wright also looked up at the approaching figure.
It was Vincent Field, whom she had met last night.
The man had changed into casual attire, polite, clean, and neat. Even though he wasn’t particularly handsome, he had a refined and pleasant demeanor.
Too bad, he wasn’t the type Flossie Wright liked.
Used to dealing with the fierce, the vicious, the bloodthirsty, Flossie Wright in her previous life rarely encountered anyone polite, so she felt no spark for this kind of person.
"Is there something you want?"
Rowdy Brightwill looked at him coldly, and when he asked the question, the hostility in his tone was evident.
"Uh," Vincent Field approached, pausing slightly, revealing a friendly smile, "I’ve come to find Flossie."
"Flossie this, Flossie that, are you guys close?"
Rowdy Brightwill narrowed his eyes, openly sarcastic.
Some nerve.
Ever since Flossie Wright joined the Forces, Rowdy Brightwill had always paid close attention to her situation. Apart from Glenn Hutchinson, he hadn’t seen anyone else daring enough to take a fancy to Flossie.
Not to mention his rivalry with Glenn, just judging by Flossie Wright’s temperament, not many dared to get close to her.
One could tell by the friends around her.
Almost none were weaker than her, all with strong personalities.
This person really had guts. Having only seen Flossie a few times, he dared to come at her so brazenly?
Being men, who didn’t understand what he was thinking?
After giving Rowdy Brightwill a look, Vincent Field, neither annoyed nor angry, replied with a smile, "Whether it’s good or not isn’t for you to judge."
"Hey!" Rowdy Brightwill stood up, looking down on Vincent Field with a smile curling on his lips, "Uncle, that’s not the right thing to say. The nature of your relationship with her is apparent even to outsiders, let alone—"
Rowdy Brightwill crossed his arms with a smile, glancing at Flossie Wright, "Considering my relationship with her, it’s not excessive for me to get involved with such matters."
Throughout the conversation, Rowdy Brightwill maintained a confident posture, never revealing any weakness.
But inside, he felt somewhat uneasy.
He couldn’t predict Flossie Wright’s mood. If this were the Flossie from before joining the Forces, he could fabricate stories because she would play along. But the current Flossie’s temperament was unpredictable, and she would occasionally do something detrimental to others.
It wasn’t the first time.
He was just worried that Flossie Wright might sabotage him.
Vincent Field’s brows knitted slightly as he sized up Rowdy Brightwill.
Some things, he could see clearly.
Rowdy Brightwill and Flossie Wright were close, probably good friends, but that was it, there couldn’t be too much to their relationship.
The two of them were a classic case of the lover yearning and the beloved indifferent. Flossie Wright had no romantic interest in Rowdy at all.
"So," Vincent Field paused, then met Rowdy Brightwill’s hostile gaze and asked, "what exactly is your relationship with Flossie?"
Rowdy Brightwill was instantly at a loss for words.
This was...
A bit difficult to answer.
"Childhood friends." Suddenly, a refreshing voice sounded beside him.
Rowdy Brightwill had just turned his head when he saw Flossie Wright stand up and, very naturally, rest her elbow on his shoulder. She squinted her eyes at Vincent Field and added, "We grew up together."
Staring at Flossie Wright, Vincent Field nodded thoughtfully
If anything, he held back the hostility towards her.
"Did you need something?"
Leaning casually against Rowdy Brightwill, Flossie Wright crossed her arms and lazily asked Vincent Field.
Flossie Wright’s posture was clearly rejecting Vincent Field’s advances.
Even together with a childhood friend, who lacked romance, she would not accept such an obvious display of interest from Vincent Field.
Both of their emotional intelligences were functioning, so it would be impossible not to recognize such clear hints.
Only time would tell whether Vincent Field would choose to play dumb, pretending to be oblivious, or wisely give up.
Flossie Wright believed that Vincent Field, who had only a few encounters with her, would not therefore pursue her relentlessly.
What would be the point?
At most, it was a matter of mild interest.
"Just came to say hello."
Vincent Field’s expression remained the same, his thoughts not overtly obvious.
Flossie Wright shrugged her shoulders, responding indifferently.
Meanwhile—
An unexpected figure was slowly approaching.
It was Glenn Hutchinson.
Last night, the meddlesome Joshua Bailey specially found him and exaggerated the matter of "Vincent Field inviting Flossie Wright" to Glenn.
Even though Glenn could see the exaggeration in his words, he didn’t care too much about it. However, thinking back to this matter at noon, he hesitated and then decided to come over.
Unexpectedly—
He saw Flossie Wright and Rowdy Brightwill in such an intimate pose.
